Thank you for your response. I tried the Network Wizard and again it detected the connection. I used Auto DHCP. I got the message "Network Configration of eth1 is successful" . However when i clicked on the browser it gave me an error stating that there is no internet connection. Is there any step i am missing. Please help.

First, make sure that tethering is enabled on your phone. I believe it's under:
Settings > General > Network > Internet Tethering
If you don't see the setting, it's possible your provider has disabled the service.
You could call them to see if the tethering function can be enabled on your service plan (which might attract an additional fee)
... or you could consider jailbreaking the phone
... or you could change to a phone provider who is known to allow tethering.

I've read similar reports on the forum - which are completely unrelated to tethering.
It sounds like Puppy's DHCP client, dhcpcd, is either failing to properly obtain an IP address, or it's failing to configure DNS addresses.
A quick fix might be to install the updated version of dhcpcd for Puppy-Lucid which I posted here -

Then reboot, and run the Network Wizard again.

If still no success, I suggest you look up the tech-support section of your phone provider's website to learn what the DNS addresses should be,
then open /etc/resolv.conf in Geany, and manually enter those settings.
For example, let's say your provider's DNS addresses are 100.0.0.1 and 100.0.0.2
Your /etc/resolv.conf should look like this -

The usbmuxd and libimobiledevice libraries should work OK in Wary, but there's also a kernel module involved; ipheth.
As you should know, kernel modules are kernel-specific, and since Lucid-Puppy 5.2.x and Wary 5.3.x have different kernels, this will be incompatible.

It is an iPhone 3.(jailbroken). I have tried the version of ipheth mentioned above in 2012 and it does show up as network device but it does not set up properly. It gets an ip address but no routing DNS or gateway. Pinging anything other than the ip of the computer itself give network not found
The phone connects ok to ubuntu on the same computer.

The ipheth package in this post is more than 2 years old now, and I think its version of libimobiledevice is likely too old for the iPhone 3.
A quick fix might be to install the experimental version of gtkpod I posted here -

This package contains the same libraries needed by the ipheth driver.

If still no luck, you will need to wait until I update the gtkpod/libimobile packages again, which should be within a month or two - I'm waiting for the next release of usbmuxd.
